Absolutely untrue. I've seen plenty of guys get booed on their return. Hell, Twins fans booed A.J. mercilessly, even though he was traded, and was a very good player while with the Twins. When I ask Twins fans why they boo A.J., they don't seem to know why.

Cleveland fans booed Thome. Need I say more?

I can think of 2 returnees Rangers fans have ever booed - A-Rod and Hamilton. Michael Young will get a hand this year, so will Mike Napoli. Go all out, give it your best, you'll get cheers when you return. Dog it, get booed.

I can't explain Twins fans booing AJ and I certainly can't see why Thome would be booed.
